A Review of the Days Trans-
actions.


NEW YORK, February 2S.-The week
opened on stock exchange with a dull and
generally weak market. Influences afiect'
ing values were about evenly divided, but
the bears again became aggressive, although
the results of their operations were small.
They lay considerable stress to-day upon
the probability of an extra session OF Con-
gress and the depreciation OF bank reserves
The market opened rather heavy, major
ity of stocks showing decline in prices.
Business was quiet, and while there were
slight advances in early dealings, the entire
list weakened quickly and further declines
of from Is to n per cent were established
The market then became dull with insig-
nificant fluctuations. though the general
tendency was upward until noon. the i'm.
p ovement being lost after that time Be
fore l o'clock decidedly better feeling
develop ID and most of the early losses were
recovered. There was renewal OF heavi-
ness in the last hour and the market closed
barely steady.

had contract to make speech at Tammany
Hall on the Fourth Of July. A professional

hearers laugh. and he did. But to assume thas
they did not laugh at him instead Of with him
over the two principal nointS OF his speech
would be To alfront their intelligence. The
World reports that the hall was full. Cox
talked as if he resembled the hall.
The two points in question were the New
York census bill and the rebcl-flag order MIR
Cox denounced Repub lcan Legislature because
il failed TO pass census measure which met tho
approval of so rank Democratic partisan as
David b. Ill., Perhaps at his leisure Mr.. Cox
will point TO the clause in the Constitution
which provides that the law-rnaking power
shall lcgisate with an eye single 70 what the
Governor wants. The measure upon which he
pours his heated wrath met the requirements
Of the Constitution it was measure which
the Legislature had perfect right to pass IL
was a measure which would have secured an
enumeration Of the inhabitants Of the State;
Il was measure which corcsponded with the
census bill which Samuel J. Tilden signed when
he was Governor. "That's where st. Paul and
differ, explained the old lady when mootcd
matter Of doctrine came up. What hit Cox
could have made if he had wound up his sharp
criticism of the census bill by excaiming {:
" That's where Tilden and differ" 1t would
have been a cold day for the memory of the
Sage of Grcystone.
Cox's other point vas still more impress

was generally denounced at the North. 1t was
a piece of gratuitous toadyism besides being
illegal The boys in blue who had risked
their lives in capturing these flags. and all
other citizens at the North in whose breasts
burns the fame Of patriotism, earnestly pro-
tested against the order. They insisted that
the flags should not be disturbed, and that is
all they insisted upon. Now how was Mr.. Cox
affected by this great outpouriDg OF patriotic
indignation? Everybody knows how the
President was affected by it. 1t caused him
promptly to take the back track. lie weak
eDed before it and rcscinded the order. But
Cox gave Tammany to understand that the
righteous wrath of the North at the order was
merely the braying Of donkcys. He does not

THE SMALL BOYS CELEBRATION

Apparently for no other end than to prove
that our precept is better than our practice
we have municipal ordinance against the DIS
charge of crackers, fireworks and all KINDS OF
cxposiye, within tre city on tbs fourth o,
Tulv. This ordinance is based on long ard
costly experience which has demonstrated that
there cannot be cracker and firework displays
without fires and destruction of property and
the manning Of many persons, and generally
some loss OF life. Add to all these cogene
practical grounds for prohibition the considera-
lions that the noise produced by such pyrotech-
mic celebrations is annoying to scores OF
thousands Of delicate women ard myallds'
that it fiightens horses continually and so leads
to more accidents, and that III is wholly barbar-
ous scnscless and worthy only OF Chinese
views of life. and it will be seen that there
is really nothing to be said in favor OF the
practice which can merit serious attention.
Nevertheless what happens on the Fourth OF
July is this The law is quietly defied. The
police make no effort TO enforce it. From end
to end and side to side the city echoes with tho
barbarous shindy of frecrackers bombs and
pistols The fire department is worked almost
to death putting out the fires caused by Che neg
the victims of fireworks and cracker accidents
Ard all this is submitted to that the small boy
NAV have his celebration.
Perhaps if all the innocent people who have
been burned out and physically injured through
the defiance of law were to sue the city for dam
ages, the fact might be realized that it is not
altogether safe to let the police determine
whether or not the law shall be administered.
Beyond question the city has rendered ihe1
liable in all these cases, and both law and
equity arc against it. Virtually the claims OF
business she rights OF the citizens to protec-
ton. have been shelved for twenty-four hours
for no other OBJ ject than the minstering To
taste for clamor and racket which the American
small boy shares with the savage. The usual
plea is that this kind Of celebration stimulates
the patriotism Of the small boy. But the plea
is as puerile as the practice. There is no con-
ceivable connection between fTccrackers and
patriotism. No doubt the small boy would like
to let off crackers every day. and he looks upon
Che Fourth Of July principally as day upon
which special and abnormal noises are privi-
legged. No idea OF the meaning Of the ami
versary need go with this feeling. and as rule
no such idea docs go with it. On tho other
hand, the small boys celebration spoils chat Of
the grown-up people by degrading it into p
savage festival. an orgy of hidcous racket and
an occasion of serious danger 90 property. The
abuse has indeed been tolerated SO lorg that
reform may appear almost hopeless, but when it
is remembered that little requires 10 be done be-
yond compelling the police to administer tho
law as il stands, there surely ought TO be some
prospect of amendment in the future.

Mr.. MullhalI, the British statistician, reck-
oned that this country produced wealth In
excess of consumption at tho rate Oh
$500, COCOON yearly, and if so third OF the
expense during the past half year must have
been taken from capital previously idle, OF
invested in Government bonds now redeemed.
or from capital received from abroad.
Without attributing to these rough estimates
much accuracy, it may fairly be said that they
illustrate at once the wonderful progress OF
the Nation, and at the same time its present
danger. The country is growing so surpns-
ingly that it can add, and apparently has
added to fixed forms of capital more in half
year than the entire accumulation OF wealth
In whole year by any other nation on earth
But it has done this by drawing large amounts
from resources previously kept available for
ready commercial use, by increasing debts
abroad, or by transferring to foreign owners
the titles to much property here.
